Fear The Walking Dead, Sonny Boy: Things To Note

Fear the Walking Dead season 7 episode 12

Things are going sideways inside Strand’s tower. What will this chaos change before war breaks out? Let’s see in my Fear The Walking Dead: Things To Note!

IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN!

Last week’s Fear The Walking Dead episode, “Sonny Boy,” was a curveball. Initially, it seemed like an episode showing the tension and discontent bubbling just beneath the surface inside Strand’s tower. By the end of the episode, Howard and John Dorie Sr. were dead, Mo was back with Morgan, and Wes, Strand’s new right-hand man. I’m not sure any of us expected all of these things to happen by the end of the episode. I certainly didn’t.

I would imagine that there are other episodes of Fear TWD where more than one major character died in a non-premiere, non-finale episode, but off the top of my head, I can’t think of them. I’ve often lamented how Walking Dead deaths have become predictable, if not a little senseless, as they seemed to always happen on premiere or finale episodes, even if the death in question came out of left field. Seeing deaths of major characters both make sense and catch me by surprise is refreshing.

Those deaths aren’t the reason we have Things To Note. It’s for pointing out all the hints, clues, references, trivia, and little details that you might overlook the first time through and bringing them to your attention.

Are you ready? It’s time for this week’s installment of Fear The Walking Dead: Things To Note!
